Creative Art for Kids

November 28, 2012 Activities, Crafts 8 Comments

Art can unlock wonderful places of imagination. We love this interactive art project that brings out your child’s inner Picasso as well as stimulates imagination.

What you need:

  1. Paper
  2. Non-toxic markers, crayons, paint, colored pencils or whatever art medium you like

What to do:

  1. Draw a line on paper – make it squiggly, curved or straight.
  2. Ask you child to imagine what it could be and draw a picture around it.

Our Kolraft Kid came up with a penguin! We had so much fun watching what she would do with the curved line. Feel free to show off your imagination art on our Facebook page.

  1. I’ve seen books in the children’s section at stores that have pages just like this – scribbles where the child can draw whatever comes to mind. They’re a bit expensive though. Personally, I think it’s better to do it yourself like you did.

    What a great idea! I would have never thought of doing something like this, but it looks like fun.

  3. This is such a fun idea! Its so simple, I don’t know why I didn’t ever think to do it. I am saving this for the cold and rainy weather we are supposed to be getting next week.
